mmixon14 Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 We need:1) OL2) DL3) RB4) MLB5) QBIn that order. I haven't seen enough from Leftwich unlike many of you. Protect him, let him hand it off and pass off the play fake and we can win games with him until the better QBs start coming out in Stafford, Tebow, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireDawg85 Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Agree. WE NEED BIG JAKE LONG! but if Kansas City wins the toss against us, they will take him so cross your fingers. BUT... If we HAVE to pick a QB first (which would be a mistake if we did) I would take Ryan before Brohm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmixon14 Posted January 27, 2008 Author Share Posted January 27, 2008 I feel you. All of them are shaky to me that early. Ryan may be the most prepared, but he's not a top ten pick in my opinion. Especially with all of the good position players coming out this year. Is it a crime for all the QB's to drop to the second round? All of them are second round talent and lower if you ask me. Is it possible that he was a one year wonder? If BC wasn't ranked 2nd overall early in the season, would he have received all that hype? I just don't buy it.

But we probably shouldn't.Josh Johnson is the only other QB that excites me, he is fun to watch. A dynamic talent. Otherwise just put the rest in a hat and pick one. I don't think anybody can predict how their careers will wind up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Protect him, let him hand it off and pass off the play fake and we can win games with him until the better QBs start coming out in Stafford, Tebow, etc.You have to consider the draft depth.I like Corey Boyd as a fourth or fifth rounder.We should probably take Sedrick since there is a big drop off after him at DT.There is depth at OT in the draft TD will find value.We could go for Dennis Dixon or Josh Johnson as a value proposition at QB.I think the FO likes Flacco.Don't forget safety as a need.

uscg_kid Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 I think we need to Draft a QB in the 2nd round unless we can sign Quinn Gray as a UFA. Chad Henne would probably be who I would go with. First pick should be Jake Long, Sedrick Ellis or Glenn Dorsey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muskokas finest © Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 This draft smacks of the infamous Alex Smith/Aaron Rogers draft, except with more over-valued QB's. None of these guys is a top 5 pick. Atlanta needs an impact player on and off the field and that is Darren Mcfadden. Hope for a QB in the second cause that gives you the most bang for your drafting buck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DemDirtyBirds4 Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 i agree, i dont like us taking Ryan in the top 5. Especially seeing that we could get Henne or Flacco in the 2nd or 3rd. I think that Henne and Flacco will be better pro QB'sin the NFL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savspartan Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 muskokas finest (1/27/2008)front office worried about ticket sales too.....8 other picks to address both lines and safetyAgree 100%. We do not need Jake Long. Jake Long = Robert Gallery = 5th Round Talent, 1st round size Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicious Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Why do we need Ryan? We already have Joey Harrington. We do not need another guy who's just going to give the other team the ball when pressured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
